The climate associated with fire is bright, hot and passionate. In some instances it can be experienced as cool and passionately dispassionate. It is dangerous in its ability to mesmerize while it is consuming to the point where the consumed is eliminated, devoured by its own attraction like the moth continually beating against the window in an effort to reach the lighted candle inside the house and does nothing but exhaust himself. Tao, Ma Deva Padma
Better to devote your attention to increasing your awareness and self-remembrance. The glass between you and that flame might be trying to protect you from something you best leave alone.
Tao, Ma Deva Padma
